Tribe Called Bass Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 New tires are new tires homie. if they're worn and you get new ones, you'll notice the difference. When I replaced mine it was a night and day difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evermaxx Posted September 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 They are brand new. I'm just asking does getting like Bridgestone or something is a better ride ?

Neckbeard Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 I think some brands last longer than others, idk about a noticeable ride quality difference Build log, Super slow!!: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/168096-slow-neckbeards-1970-opel-gt/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hershy314 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Some tires do handle better than others. On my last car when I replaced the tires I found a good set of Nitto tires (forgot which ones) that were a stock replacement. I don't remember what was on the car before, but I noticed a huge difference. http://athphotography.deviantart.com/ http://www.youtube.com/user/hershy314 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickass audio Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 I went from the tires on my truck that were at half of its life when I bought it to damn near on the wear bars and replaced them. I had sailun terramax H/T tires on my truck when I bought it and then went to BfGoodrich long trail t/a tires. The difference is there because I have a little more road noise than I had before in my Sailun tires but my tread wear was a lot faster in the sailun tires because they are a luxury kind of tire with it being made of softer rubber. The BfGoodrich tires I have are excellent other than road noise. The grip I get on them is amazing and the reason I got them on mine is because my dads 97 tahoe came from the factory with them and I loved how his performed on and off road. Even just in rain is a lot better for performance than what I used to have. So to answer your question, yes tires can make a difference but not that much. Suspension can make a big difference if you have poor ride quality. 2004 GMC Envoy1 XS power S3400 batt under the hood and 4 XS Power D3100's battery installed in the rear by the amps0 gauge power wire from front to backAlpine iva-w205 touchscreen dvd/cd/mp3/ipod/am/fm/gps headunitSundown Audio SAX-200.4 amp for my mids and highs8 gauge speaker wire from amp to woofer270 amp Mechman AltRockford Fosgate T1652-s component speakersRockford Fosgate 3Sixty.2 sound processorRca's from Rockford Fosgate and Monster Cable14 gauge speaker wire for the mids and highs1 18" Ascendant Audio SMD Dual 1 ohm with custom Black & Blue carbon fiber and hand signed dustcapBox: 5.66 cubic feet net volume box tuned to 30.13Hz with 1.5" wide wooden dowels and 1.5" thick baffle1 DC Audio 5.0k amp wired to .5 ohms nominal with an imp rise of 1.35 ohms for the single AA SMD 18"Future Vision 8000k 50w bi-xenon projector HID's with 4300k 35w fog lightsLink to my build: Buildupdates/progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoomZoom808 Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Yes changing tires will change handling and road feel. Also changing to a taller tire from a low profile tire also will change the ride. I had some really low pro falken's and I switched to a fatter tire and it really made the ride more comfy and the tire felt wider and more stable in sharp turns. 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
